Geography
The city is separated into three wards, the dock, Brightcourt, and market wards.The surround area is mostly hilly grassland, which is pierced by a large river that is used as a trade-route. The southern half of the city (everything south of the river) is the Brightcourt ward, a more upscale part of town where most of the nobility lives. The north part of the city is split into the dock ward and market ward. They are mostly described by their names, but the dock ward tends to foster more travelers and inns, whereas the Market ward has a large open square for selling goods and many of the homes for people who make their life in Philos.
